I should have mentioned what tools I'm using and the why I sent the patch.
I am using the native Sun assembler and linker. The Sun assembler does
not understand the .previous so that is the reason for the patch.
Using the binutils from www.blastwave.org I managed to get only the first
5 files of 'make depend' to compile before it had problems with assembler.
Seems to be easier to use the native version.
